I haven’t read any comments. That being said I think a lot of what this is saying is anecdotal. Anecdotal evidence is good in this case because it would probably be hard to get good data on what this is trying to prove. I think some of the problem is that most of the people who google something don’t care that they use google or even think about what they type in. People who are using quotes to google things I would already put in the advanced category of googling. I google things every day for programming matters and most of the time it’s good with the short answers it pulls from SO or bringing up documentation as a first result. But not once have I used the quotes function to google something. If the quotes not matching was a big argument of his and then later revises that with “oh the quotes do work… for now” I don’t see why this has so much traction. As for Reddit being so popular I think needs more of an explanation. I think one large factor is Wall Street bets. That probably brought a lot of people and kept them. And beyond that people who heard about WSB had never heard of Reddit and downloaded it and kept using. Reddit is nothing more than a forum. Is there a fine line between a forum and a search engine? You tell me.
In the mean time just learn how to google. I google obscure questions about Flutter and specific flutter packages and google does fine. If not then I switch to duck duck go.
My thoughts exactly when my girlfriend had to apply for benefits. The UX is awful, it’s difficult to tell where you are on the page or what you should be looking at. On and on...
